Fietsverlichting bestaat al sinds het einde van de 19e eeuw. Hier hebben we een carbidlamp van Herm Riemann. Licht ontstond door de verbranding van het gas acetyleen, dat in de lamp werd geproduceerd uit calciumcarbide en water. Hermann Riemann richtte het bedrijf op in 1866 en produceerde sinds 1888 fietslampen. Vanaf 1894 gebeurde dit in het nieuw gebouwde fabrieksgebouw in Chemnitz-Gablenz. Deze gepatineerde Carbidlamp is voor zijn leeftijd in zeer goede staat. Hier en daar wel een deukje en/of krasje. Zie hiervoor de foto’s. De Carbidlamp wordt goed verpakt en via PostNL opgestuurd.

A Little Piece of History!

Bicycle lighting has existed since the end of the 19th century.
Here we have a carbide lamp from Herm Riemann.
Light was created by the combustion of acetylene gas, which was produced in the lamp from calcium carbide and water.
Hermann Riemann founded the company in 1866 and has been producing bicycle lamps since 1888.
Since 1894, this took place in the newly built factory building in Chemnitz-Gablenz.

This patinated carbide lamp is in very good condition for its age.
Here and there a dent and/or scratch.
See the photos for this.

The carbide lamp is well packaged and shipped via PostNL.
